“I am super comfortable as a speaker now."
“Before I worked with BostonSpeaks, I used to get in my head and I hated it. It held me back professionally and I knew I had to take action. Now, I feel super comfortable as a speaker. I am very grateful I had a chance to work with BostonSpeaks."
-Catherine Storing, Two-time Tedx Presenter & Best Selling Author
Don’t make this mistake as a speaker…
You’ll just power through the nerves and speak more. You thought just pushing through your public speaking will help you get rid of the anxiety.
Eventually, it will be better one day, right?
Wrong.
The nerves don't just go away someday just by powering through.
Or perhaps, you've tried it all, here's what someone said to me when I asked, "What have you tried before to work on your speaking nerves"?
and the person said...
- Breathing and meditation
- Positive thinking and affirmations
- Other public speaking coaches
- Other speaking courses and groups
well, why didn't those things work....?
The Problem - Other speaking programs (or yourself) work specifically on the skill side or practice side of public speaking and not on the specific reason for what's causing your speaking anxiety.
Most people don’t understand how to go to the root of their speaking fear. Instead, they focus on the wrong things to try to alleviate their nerves.
It’s not speaking more, it’s not pushing through the nerves, it’s not taking deep breaths and it’s even not getting better with public speaking skills such as better gestures, better structure, better techniques to engage, etc.
Don’t get me wrong, these things do help a little bit but they don’t eliminate public speaking anxiety from the start…
Then what really helps?
Your Mindset Is The Game Changer
The Way In Is The Way Out.
It’s not the technical public speaking skills you need to work on the most or the repetition of doing it over and over again, it’s your mindset of how you see yourself and the consequences of how others might perceive you.
Mindset Makes The Difference.
Olympians and the highest elite athletes have a specific coach to work on their mindset. So, why shouldn't you?
Great Speakers Train Their Mindset.
The Confident Speaker Method will train your brain for speaking success so you can win and speak with confidence in any situation.

"I had the privilege to receive training from BostonSpeaks. I always dreaded public speaking, and associate it with cold sweats and a big know in my stomach. After the training, I felt more relaxed, and my passion for my business started piercing the stiffness of my body language, slowly projecting itself into the room. Thank you BostonSpeaks for creating such a highly valuable experience of self-reflection and self-improvement!"

Is This Program For You?
DO NOT SKIP OVER THIS PART.
This program is for individuals who are committed and serious about their speaking growth. The curriculum is hands-on and interactive.
Here’s what we will NOT DO:
We are not going to work on the technical side of public speaking skills such as:
- How to organize your presentation
- How to tell stories
- What to do with your body language and voice
- Different ways to create Powerpoint slides
- How to stop saying filler words
Do you know other people who don’t do some of the things above effectively and yet they are still confident? These skills are important and there’s a time and place for mastering these skillsets but The Confident Speaker Method is not your typical public speaking program. This program was meant to work on your inner game as a speaker.
Here’s what we will DO:
We will be working on your mental game. Successful speakers realize that mindset is key to taking their speaking to the next level so they implement mental training.
In a nutshell, we’ll work on two major things:
- Getting to the root cause of the fear and anxiety - More specifically, we’ll uncover your thoughts, beliefs, and mental barriers that are holding you back. Once we uncover them, we’ll start changing them which means increasing your confidence.
- How to stay in control in moments of chaos - During times of stress, especially when things might not go as planned during speaking situations, you’ll have to know how to stay calm and adapt to the moment. We’ll work on strategies to help you keep it together and speak with confidence when things go hectic (internally or externally).
"Now I'm able to speak with more confidence. If people pick on me, I'm able to speak. My voice doesn't shake at all. And, I actually join Zoom calls now at work."
Meet Martha
"Talking to two or more people, my voice would go away. I knew what to say but for some reason, my voice would be really, really shaky. Now I'm able to speak with more confidence. If people pick on me, I'm able to speak. My voice doesn't shake at all. And, I actually join Zoom calls now at work."

Here’s the truth…
Most people have been presenting and speaking for years and have kept on doing the same thing (practicing the same way, thinking the same way, speaking the same way) hoping that their nerves will just eventually go away…
Most people actually seem fine on the outside but on the inside, they are filled with dread and butterflies in their stomachs when they have to speak…
Most people ignore the issues they have with public speaking because they’ll just tackle it “one day” in the future. ..
But you’re not like most people, aren’t you?
If you’re reading this now, you know that it’s up to you to take action if you want to advance your career and get that peace of mind by stomping those speaking nerves to the ground.
